AI for construction

AI systems for construction companies in Singapore

Our AI systems read your tender packs, track your project costs and match your invoices. They run over the delivery orders, site records and spreadsheets your team already uses. We work with main contractors and M&E firms across Singapore.

The work we automate

AI that runs the operational and commercial work behind every construction project.

Tender screening

Read a full tender pack and score it against your bid criteria before you commit a week to reading. Extracts scope, key dates, submission requirements and risks on one page.

SmartDoc

Schedule of rates extraction

Pull every line item, rate, unit and quantity out of a tender in minutes. Handles the multi-page tables and nested structures common in BCA and GeBIZ packs.

SmartDoc

Variation order pricing

Extract the scope change from a variation instruction, match it to the contract rates and flag unpriced items. The quantity surveyor starts from a costed draft instead of a blank sheet.

SmartOS

Progress claim preparation

Assemble the monthly progress claim from site records, approved variations and retention schedules. Checks every line against the contract payment terms before submission.

SmartOS

Shop drawing and submittal review

Check each submittal against the specification and flag non-conformances. Reads tender documents, material schedules and engineering specifications, and links every finding to the source page.

SmartDoc

Delivery order matching

Match every delivery order against the PO quantities and flag shortfalls, substitutions or price changes before the site team signs.

SmartDoc

Invoice vs PO matching

Three-way match: invoice against PO against delivery order, line by line. Blocks duplicates, flags mismatches and routes clean invoices for payment approval.

SmartDoc

RFI log closeout

Read the RFI register, check which items have a response, surface overdue items and flag RFIs that affect cost or programme before the next project meeting.

SmartOS

Subcontractor back-charge tracking

Read back-charge notices against subcontract terms. Flag disputed amounts, missing substantiation and items that exceed the retention balance.

SmartOS

Site delivery and inspection capture

Photograph delivery orders, inspection checklists and handwritten site records during walkthroughs. SmartDoc Go extracts item descriptions, quantities, readings and defect notes from each image and logs them against the project record without manual re-entry.

Who uses it

Built for the people who run construction projects.

Quantity surveyor

Progress claims, variation pricing, cost tracking and final account preparation. SmartOS assembles the claim and checks every line against the contract before you review it.

See SmartOS

Contracts manager

Tender compliance, subcontract administration, back-charges and extension of time claims. SmartDoc reads the contract and flags the clauses that affect cost and programme.

See tender evaluation

Bid manager

Tender screening, schedule of rates extraction and proposal compliance checking. SmartDoc reads the full pack so the bid team starts from complete information, not a partial read.

See proposal compliance

Project manager

Site records, delivery verification, labour capture and daily reporting. SmartOS surfaces what changed, what is late and who needs to act before the next project meeting.

How we deliver

Working AI in weeks, not months.

Every engagement starts with a two-to-four-week sprint using the Swift Approach. We work with your actual tender packs, delivery orders and project files from day one, not sample data. Your team tests the system on real material during the sprint and tunes it with us.

At the end of the sprint your team has a working system configured around your existing SharePoint, Google Drive or ERP, with a handover playbook that covers the rules, exceptions and operating procedures. SmartOS, which brings together more than ten workflows across the project lifecycle, deploys in under twelve weeks.

Singapore construction context

Built around the way Singapore construction works.

Singapore construction projects follow a commercial cycle that runs from tender invitation through award, mobilisation, monthly progress claims, retention and the defects liability period. Every stage produces documents that carry contractual weight, and every document moves through review and approval before it becomes a commitment.

Our AI systems are built around this cycle. Tender screening handles the formats used in BCA and GeBIZ public procurement. Cost tracking maps to the work-head structure that BCA-registered contractors use, and approval workflows respect the signatory rules that govern how commitments are made on site.

We work with contractors registered across BCA work heads, from general building (CW01) and civil engineering (CW02) to mechanical and electrical (ME) categories. Whether you run a BCA L6 main contracting firm or a specialist M&E subcontractor, our AI systems read the same documents your teams produce and consume every day.

From our customers

Construction teams we are working with.

Green-building certification consultancy. A consultancy advising property developers across Singapore on green-building standards. Their consultants sit between architects, engineers and the certifying authorities. We built a system that triages drawings by trade and discipline, extracts thermal performance data from building drawings, and drafts regulatory reports automatically. The consultant reviews and signs off instead of writing from scratch. Read more

Regional property and facilities operator. A regional operator running residential properties, logistics hubs and commercial real estate across Southeast Asia. We built a system that reads vendor invoices and credit notes, routes approval requests to the right approvers automatically, and surfaces the top-priority items each morning. Read more

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

SmartDoc reads tender packs, delivery orders, supplier invoices, progress claim submissions, variation orders, RFI logs, method statements and site inspection reports. It handles scanned PDFs, images and native digital files, and every extracted value links back to the source page. Drawing extraction depends on complexity and format, so we scope that during the first sprint.

SmartDoc can extract data from many types of construction drawings, including drawing titles, revision numbers and material specifications. The scope of what can be reliably extracted depends on drawing complexity, format and quality. We assess this during the first sprint using your actual project drawings and set expectations before committing to a workflow.

Every engagement follows the Swift Approach. A single SmartDoc configuration or SmartWork workflow deploys in two weeks. SmartOS, which brings together more than ten workflows across the project lifecycle, deploys in under twelve weeks. All three start with your real project documents, not sample data.

Our AI systems read from and write to SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox, Excel registers, SAP, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics and Outlook. They run on top of your existing file stores and ERPs rather than replacing them.

SmartDoc is the document intelligence engine: it reads, extracts and compares construction documents with visual grounding. SmartOS is the project management operating system built on top of SmartDoc: it chains workflows across the project lifecycle, from tender screening through to final account, with a dashboard and approval queue. SmartWork handles standalone workflows that sit outside the project lifecycle, such as AutoCAD automation or one-off process builds.

Yes. SmartDoc pulls every line item, rate, unit and quantity from a schedule of rates in minutes. It handles the multi-page tables and nested structures common in BCA and GeBIZ tender packs, and outputs a structured spreadsheet ready for pricing.
